Internacional could sell former Brazil goalkeeper Dida to their Brazilian Serie A rivals Coritiba, the Porto Alegre football club has said.

The ex-AC Milan stopper has played just one match this year, having been made Internacional's second-choice in goal behind 22-year-old Alisson, reports Xinhua.

"There is a possibility. The question has been raised and we will look into it during the week," Internacional football director Carlos Pellegrini said on Sunday.

Coritiba are still searching for a regular goalkeeper after trading former incumbent Vanderlei to Santos in January.

Dida joined Internacional last year after short spells with Portuguesa and Gremio.

The 41-year-old won 91 caps for Brazil and was a member of the Brazilian squad that won the 2002 World Cup in Japan and South Korea.
